  1. Please add this feature, so we can read full file names of PDFs we upload. If some are too similar, you have to open each to check each file. But once open you still can't see the full file name to be positive you've opened the correct one... For example if the name ends in revision date

  2. I use this app to take notes and study for big exams. But at times all my progress just erases and it's frustrating. I want to be able to back this up and get everything because this is just wrong. all studying and hours of work are down the drain.

  3. Hi, I am a new Goodnotes user, and selected this app for two reasons: 1) ease of use, 2) audio recording. I think the app is great! As I will be using audio recording a lot, could you please add the features below to audio recording?:

    1) Repeat.

    Could you add a button that would allow your recording to loop, replaying the recording continuously? This would help greatly when you want to hear the content over and over.

    2) Improved edit for audio.

    As other users have stated, sometimes you forget to turn off the record button, and end up…

  4. Merhaba GoodNotes Ekibi,

    Uygulamanızın son güncellemeleriyle birlikte gelen ses transkripti özelliği harika, ancak yalnızca İngilizce olarak kullanılıyor olması maalesef Türk kullanıcılar için büyük bir eksiklik. Rakip uygulama Notability bile Türkçe transkript desteği sunarken GoodNotes gibi lider bir uygulamada bu özelliğin eksik olması, biz kullanıcılar açısından olumsuz bir durum yaratıyor. Bu nedenle, Türkçe transkript desteğinin eklenmesini içtenlikle talep ediyoruz.

    Ek olarak, uygulama içi ürün fiyatlarının Türkiye’de doğrudan dolar kuruna bağlı olarak yüksek seviyelerde olması da Türk kullanıcılar için önemli bir erişim engeli oluşturuyor. Türkiye’nin ekonomik koşulları ve alım gücü göz önüne alındığında, Türkiye’ye özel bir fiyatlandırma politikasının uygulanması, uygulamanızın daha fazla…

  6. When using the lasso tool to cut/copy-paste images, pen, highlighter and shapes the lasso tool remains active after the desired paste action has been completed.

    When the lasso tool is used to perform the same cut/copy-paste function for text, once the text has been pasted the laso tool is dropped in favour of the text tool.

    Can the lasso tool remain the dominant feature after moving text please? I find myself inadvertently entering punctuation into the middle of text because the tool has defaulted without being actioned to do so

  8. Currently, it’s not possible to use the trackpad for actions like deleting notifications or navigating within study sets. For example, you cannot swipe between flashcards in study sets with the trackpad, which makes the navigation feel clunky and inconsistent. Adding trackpad support for these things would greatly improve the user experience both on iPadOS and macOS.

  9. It would be amazing for technical sketching if shapes would lock to the grid when either drawing or using the lasso tool. Additionally the circle shape should have their handles for resizing on the top, bottom, left and right (always) instead of somewhere random. A „snap to center“ option would be also great, so you could e.g. center one circle within another one easily.

  10. I’d like to be able to write notes on a page, and then create hidden pages behind it to do examples or whatever, kind of like writing on the back of a page in a physical notebook. Something that’s not another separate page that i would see when scrolling through my notes but if i wanted to see examples related to my notes on a specific page, or more inessential notes related to a specific topic, they would be attached to that page or “behind” it. This would be most useful in pdfs and math related subjects.

  11. I’d like to be able to view multiple pages side by side, for example to compare 2 pages, or have refer back to one specific page while writing on a different one. I also wish that when zooming out i can position the page anywhere on my screen; right now its only in the center and when I’m taking notes on a video for example, it would be useful to still have the whole page available for writing instead of part of it behind the video.

  13. Once we finish reading a PDF and want to delete it for good, we now have to go to the location (folder) of the file and delete. That is lot of work navigating to the actual location.
    Give us the option in the file options to trash the file.

  14. it would be great if you could add this feature on the next update. Selecting multiple pages at once to delete highlighted or handwritten notes separately. I have multiple documents that I’ve highlighted and sometimes I would like to just delete the highlighted sections but then it would delete my pen notes and it’s tedious to use the erase for just highlights

  17. When using the trackpad to scroll in GoodNotes on Mac, there seems to be a delay at the start. The scroll doesn’t begin immediately, and it feels like I have to move my finger a certain distance before the scrolling actually starts.

  18. In the iPad app, you can do either textboxes or you can choose to use the 'typing mode' where the text automatically aligns with the lines on the page. I would love to have this feature for the Windows version of the app!

  19. I'd love to have the option to toggle off the pop up window when clicking on hyperlinks leading out of GoodNotes. It would improve my workflow so much.
